Shehu Sani To Emerging Public Officers: Prepare For Two Sides Of Power

By Ayodele Oni 

A former Kaduna Senator, Shehu Sani, has counseled those aspiring to public office to be prepared for the two sides of power.

According to Sani, “Power is brutal not just in Nigeria, but in other countries.”

He maintained that there is nothing happening now that had not happened before, citing his experience while at the Senate.

Sani posted in his X account that: “During our time in the Senate, we spent almost the whole four years escorting our Senate President Bukola Saraki to multiple Courts in Abuja.

“In one court it’s forgery and criminal conspiracy, and in another it’s false declaration of assets.

“Sometimes, I had to attend to my own Civil and Criminal charges in Kaduna,  then rushed to Abuja to escort him.

“Senator Dino too was dragged to Courts in Abuja and Kogi where he had issues with the Governor. At a point Brother Dino had to climb a tree to save himself from the fangs of power.

“Power is brutal not just in Nigeria.Trump was also criminally charged to different Courts and he too is today charging some of his critics. Anything you see happening today had happened yesterday. 

“Those of you who are young and want to seek for public office in the future, just prepare yourself for the two sides of power; The Sweet side and the dangerous side.”
